Have you had your JOY JUICE today? Take your time! There’s no need to be
impatient!
Like little
children lining up for a treat, most of us are impatient when it comes to receiving
God’s blessings! We pray…and then we
want an answer immediately…or at the least, very soon! Well, God doesn’t always work on our time
schedule. He often makes us wait, because He loves us and His timing is so much
better than ours. He knows what is best for us!
Isaiah
40:31 says: “Yet those who wait for the LORD will gain new strength; They will
mount up with wings like eagles, They will run and not get tired, They will
walk and not become weary.”
Is there
something you’ve been praying about, asking God to give you and you are getting
impatient that He’s not answering in the way you think he should? We must be very careful not to fall into the
trap of “making things happen”…manipulating our circumstances to make things
work out “our” way. Joyce Meyer writes,
“There are multitudes of unhappy,
unfulfilled Christians in the world simply because they are busy trying to make
something happen, instead of waiting patiently for God to bring things to pass
in His own time and His own way.
In order to “wait for the
Lord”, we must humble ourselves before Him, accepting His plan and His joyfully
perfect timetable.
Let’s wait on the Lord so that in His perfect time
HE may pour out His JOY JUICE into our lives as His will comes to pass.
